The main interest of SkySight in thermals was the forecast in steps of 30 minutes, allowing us to anticipate the beginning and the end of convection because at the tropics, the sun goes down very quickly, at 6 p.m. you have to be on the final glide (120 km), at 8 p.m. it is dark. Of course, the strong point of this software lies in the forecasting of dynamic systems and we did use it, without neglecting the study of general maps of public domain on continental scale, and especially the jet streams, of which it is confirmed once again that their presence is a sufficient condition for the establishment of powerful wave systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=\u00a0\u00bb3_4,1_4&Prime; _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.4.8&Prime;][et_pb_column type=\u00a0\u00bb3_4&Prime; _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.4.8&Prime;][et_pb_image src=\u00a0\u00bbhttps:\/\/topfly-aero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/191107-15.30-SS-THERMALS-MAP.png\u00a0\u00bb title_text=\u00a0\u00bb191107 15.30 SS THERMALS MAP\u00a0\u00bb _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.4.8&Prime;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\u00a0\u00bb1_4&Prime; _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.4.8&Prime;][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.4.8&Prime;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0c71c3;\"><em>Matthew Scutter had to modify his software to deal with ceilings above 8,000 m.
